IRRIGATION FROM WELLS.
Marienfeld News.

The question of irrigation has been IN
der discussion for some time, but its
praCtiCability has not been tested on the
Staked Plains. Irrigation is easy where
water is plentiful, but a scarcity would
make IL difficult 10 irrigate a small piece
of land.
The people of this vicinity should take
this matter into consideration, and pre-
pare themselves to iTrigate to some eX-
tent, to save themselves from suffering,
when they are Overtaken in q dTOuth like
the present one. Garden vegetables
could be raised in abundance by irriga-
ton, and the expense would be compare
lively light compared to the benefits de-
rived by it. There are locations in this
county where water can be had in mex
haustible quantities at a reasonable
depth the only expense would be to raise
the water from the well and carry it by
means Of pipes under the soil to it's des-
tination. This has proved very success
full in California. why not here? It be
hOOves the farmers of this county to take
this matter into consideration, and make
a move in this direction. You can raise
as much on one acre well Watered as you
can on ten partly watered. This will ap-
ply to any year, and more especially to
one like this.
